  Fishing Bridge RV Park--Yellowstone National Park

  Windy but ok

  Fishing Bridge is the only hard sided RV only, full hook-up campground that can accommodate big rigs inside Yellowstone National Park.  We were in loop E, which had concrete pads and picnic tables.  Every site in loop E is a pull through, which is nice.  However, there is zero shade and it gets windy.  It didn't seem to bother some of the other campers since people were still eating at their picnic tables, but I found it tedious to combat the wind whilst trying to have dinner the one night we did attempt to eat outside.  Campfires and propane fire pits are not allowed so you will find zero campfire rings in this campground.  You can have either propane grills or charcoal grills, but they have to be kept within the RV/trailer or tow vehicle at night.  Nothing should be left outside at night due to the possibility of curious bears that come looking for food.  We played it safe and  locked up everything during the day when we weren't there and at night.  Just outside the rv park is a general store with souvenirs, small grocery, camping gear, and deli.  There's also a gas station and rv/auto parts store.  Across from that is the Fishing Bridge Visitor's Center.  Fishing Bridge is located centrally in the park on the east entrance road.  The website says cell service is spotty, but I had no issues with Verizon and had decent service in the rv park and surrounding Fishing Bridge area as well as the other main attraction areas in the park (Old Faithful, Canyon Village, etc.)  Basically, if there were amenities--hotels/lodges, gas stations, campgrounds--there was cell service in and around that area.  There was little or no service between those areas.  We stayed 4 nights, Monday-Friday, and even though there were signs that said the park was full, I always saw empty spaces, at least in loop E.

  Absaroka Bay RV Park

  Below average

  No cable TV. WiFi is weak. No pool. Cement floors in restrooms and laundry. No shade. Small rv pull throughs. Expensive compared to other facilities with more amenities. Our site was next to a major roadway with traffic noises all night.

  Colter Campground

  Low branches big potholes- big rig be cautious

  I really wanted to camp here but after scouting we would not have fit our fifth wheel. The trees were about 7.5-8’ wide and height clearance was probably close to 12’. If you go to the end and turn around there’s some sites you could possibly tuck a big rig into but the turn around is very tight and you may get hung up on rocks. Though the sites were nice we did not find it big rig accessible in its current state.

  Sheep Mountain BLM

  Great location! Free boondocking!

  We were able to haul our 45-ft fifth wheel and find level ground. There are some additional locations to park higher on the hill but the road to get there is a little more rough. I've seen smaller camper vans but we couldn't haul our big rig up there. We boondocked here all week. Not far from Yellowstone and the town of Cody with amenities. The sheep mountain hiking trailhead is right here and lots of off-roading trails for single and double track. Great views. It was rainy and windy half the time we were here (late May). The roads were dirt but still solid and well maintained. Some of the hiking and OHV trails got muddy up on the mountain.

  Eagle Creek Campground

  Yellowstone Northern Access At A Lower Price Point

  When it comes to Yellowstone camping can be difficult unless you plan far in advance and prices can soar in the summer months.   For those wanting a little better price points and convenient access to the northern most entrance visiting the Gallatin National Forest is a great option for finding that perfect location and still maintaining access.

  I visited this area and was very impressed with the campground and the spacing it provided.   But more importantly I was happy to see that unlike the Yellowstone campgrounds which lack cell signal, at this location I was able to utilize my services through AT&T.    Sure that might not be something everyone considers when traveling, but when you work remotely being able to access the internet through my cell phone is very important.  I had been in the park for several days so stopping here was a good catch up opportunity.

  The sites were each well spaced and offered a soft grassy pad for my tent when staying, unlike the darkened dry grassy lands around.   It was almost as though this location was an oasis, despite having no services.

  Each sight provides a bear box, picnic table and fire ring, overall very standard for this area.    Additionally there were basic vault toilets which were very well maintained.  One person at the campground actually joked about that being a great hiding place should a bear enter camp...lol

  Camping at this location has a 16 night limit and sites are only $7 per night, which is $20 less expensive than the closest Yellowstone campground.  Similar rules apply to this campground as others in the area.   There are no trash services so you have to pack in and out all of your trash.   Generators can be use throughout the camp during certain hours and there are fire restrictions during certain conditions and times (posted on the entry kiosk).   This is an honor system campground with a pay box at the entry, however I did notice it was patrolled at least once nightly by area Forest Service, unlike the pull off sites just beyond camp.

  TIPS:

  • If you need anything you can stop off just before turning onto the road at any number of stores, shops or restaurants in the low laying community.
  • If you need high speed WIFI Subway in the local community has the best access for free.
  • West Entrance allows you to split to to east which is where you will spot more wildlife versus the Western side of the park where you will find more of the geothermal features.

  Fishing Bridge RV Park--Yellowstone National Park

  Great location, full hookup, small spaces.

  Full hookup campground in the heart of Yellowstone. This is a large, busy campground with oddly shaped spots where you park beside your trailer. Big rigs may find it a tight fit but our small trailer was fine. Nearby store is well stocked and gas was available as well. Lake Lodge and Lake Hotel are nearby and offer lots of food choices. Showers were adequate but busy and expect to wait during peak season. No wifi or cell service. If you are looking for scenery you won't find it here, but it's a great base for your Yellowstone explorations due to the central location.

  NOTE: Only hard-sided units are allowed here due to bears frequenting the campground.

  Fishing Bridge RV Park--Yellowstone National Park

  Inside Yellowstone, full hook up site

  Great location inside Yellowstone. Perfect for upper or lower loop attractions. This RV campground has concrete pads and pull through sites, picnic table on site. Restroom building close by, but showers are located in different building by main office. Huge laundry area as well by main offfice.

  Rex Hale Campground

  Great Campground

  Access to Rex Hale was easy following the website instructions. Basically, you follow the signs through Cody to Yellowstone National Park via US 14, the park is right off US 14. There was no formal check-in. We had a reservation and that was noted on the post at our back-in site 9 with 50/30 AMP. There was confusion on our part whether we needed to get water before or after arriving based on several campground(CG) reviews. We called the ranger station the day prior who confirmed the water was on at the CG. Then we found out upon arrival that the sites as you come into the CG on the right side of the road up to site 12 have not only electric but also water! This was a recent addition and why water had been nonexistent or off in recent CG reviews. We were told there was a camp host but the host had actually already departed for the season. There was no cell signal nor OTA channels. There are about 30 sites with only sites 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 9, 11, and 12 having electric and, now, water. The middle sites, the far CG end to the east and along the riverside of the CG have no utilities. There are water spigots periodically placed throughout the CG. There are several vault toilets but no showers. There is no dump station in the CG, but there is one in Buffalo Bill State Park near Cody. We were staying at an RV park in Cody and just dumped there. We were very impressed with this CG and really enjoyed our spacious site, the mountain views and the peacefulness of the place. We were here when they closed the CG for the season on 20 September and would definitely come back.

  Fishing Bridge RV Park--Yellowstone National Park

  Good Base Camp For Exploring Yellowstone

  Pros:

  Water, sewer, electricity

  Level sites

  Center point of Yellowstone

  Convenience store nearby

  Friendly staff

  Clean well taken care of campground

  Cons:

  The site we stayed in was $100 a night

  No wood fires allowed

  We stayed in loop E for 3 nights while exploring Yellowstone. The campground was very nice and I would say worth $100 a night. It was a good place to leave from each morning to see the sites, we typically would beat the crowds coming from the gates by about an hour to our first destination of the day. As of June '23 loop E is mostly pull through sites for larger rigs. The other two loops are a little tighter but have more tree cover.
